Advertising in the Huron-Kinloss Discovery Guide

The deadline to advertise in the 2017 Discovery Guide is fast approaching!

The 2016 Township of Huron-Kinloss Discovery Guide was once again an overwhelming success! The Township will be producing the 6th edition of the Guide due out Spring 2017. The guide will continue to be a vital source of information for residents of and visitors to beautiful Huron-Kinloss, and highlight council and municipal information, community events, recreation, local resources and a complete listing of all businesses in the municipality.

Purchasing an ad in the Huron-Kinloss community guide is an affordable and effective way for your business to directly reach your target audience. We will be producing 7500 full gloss text and colour copies which will be mailed out to all permanent Township residents, as well as being available for pick-up at key locations in the community, including municipal offices and tourist information centres in Bruce, Grey and Huron County.

All ads will need to be booked on or before December 30th, 2016. To book an ad, please call Kelly Lush at 519-395-3735 or email klush@huronkinloss.com

We’re looking forward to working together to promote Huron-Kinloss and be an important source of information for residents and visitors. Thank you for your continued support in this exciting community project!
